Poll: 89% say January 6 hearings have not changed their minds

[Counselor706]

A recent poll found a large percentage of respondents said the House January 6 Committee hearings had not changed their minds about the incident at the Capitol.

“Have the recent House January 6 Committee hearings changed your mind about what happened at the Capitol that day or who is responsible, or have the hearings not changed your mind?” the Monmouth University poll, published Tuesday, asked respondents.

In August, eight percent answered, “Yes, have,” while 89 percent answered, “No, have not.

In addition, American citizens leaned toward the belief the January 6 hearings were partisan in nature, and most thought they were designed to prevent former President Donald Trump from running again, according to a I&I/TIPP poll published in July.

Gota love it when they link to sites which:

From the link in 706's OP.......https://www.monmouth.edu/polling-institute/reports/monmouthpoll_US_080922/

"When asked how to describe the incident at the Capitol building, 64% say “riot” is appropriate and 52% say “insurrection” is appropriate, while 35% say it is appropriate to call it a legitimate protest. These results are no more than one or two points different than the Monmouth poll taken six weeks ago after the first five public hearings. Moreover, 29% of Americans – including 6 in 10 Republicans (61%) – continue to believe Joe Biden only won the 2020 presidential election due to voter fraud, which is unchanged from the June poll. These results are also similar to a Monmouth poll taken last year, before the committee was formed."

“The sensational revelations during the hearings do not seem to have moved the public opinion needle on Trump’s culpability for either the riot or his spurious election fraud claims. This continues to give political cover to Republican leaders who avoid addressing the damage done to our democratic processes that day,” said Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute.

You give the OP too much credit - she never actually reads past the headlines which confirms her bias.

No, but usually when I call him a "she" he ends up responding with an even more stupid link.

“When we released our June poll, I said the committee was preaching to the choir. These current results suggest they haven’t recruited any new singers since then,” said Murray. (director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute.)

Gee, what a surprise! Lol.

He also said the following about the fact the hearings are not moving the bar.....

So keep in mind Murray is supporting the hearings, he was just surprised the stupid can't learn, or more to the point,their choice of media is not covering the hearings...

Peoples minds don't change, if there is no material being presented to change their minds....
